Having a case of the Mondays?  I know… it happens.  One cure that always works for me… SHOPPING!!!  Right now, I’m on the hunt for a new, chic, statement-making floor lamp for our living room.  Here are 6 options I’m considering.  Of course I love them all, so you’ll have to help me decide…

So… do you have a fave?  Which one should I choose?

Happy New Year! Okay, I know I’m a little late, but, for most of us, today is “back to reality” day.  So, I thought I’d provide some ‘golden nuggets’ to brighten your day.

By now, you all know about my obsession with gold (here, here and here are just a few examples), and then there’s my love of geometric decor… put those together and you have items that I’m absolutely obsessed with.

Here are 5 picks I have my eye on.

Number 19 on my Countdown to Christmas is a bit of Christmas decor. Not only are these beauties festive and sweet, but they feed my insatiable love of gold which makes them perfect! These festive reindeer would look great on a mantle, an entryway table or even adorning a bedroom dresser.

I’ve totally fallen for these fawns!

Let’s face it, working is not always fun; but one way to make it less painful is to have a super cute desk.  What would my perfect desk look like?  A clean white a parsons desk with lots of gold accessories.
